  • Winter wheels to go on my wagon.......................

    Getting to that time of year again.........WINTER. Bought some winter tyres last week. (Continental winter contact's) Was going to put them on my standard wheels but then got an itch I had to scratch so, bought some BBS CH Motorsport replica wheels to fit them onto. 8x18 and 9x18.
    I can't recommend winter tyres enough after last year (Had them on my Subaru STi) I was one of the only vehicles still moving in my village when all the snow came. Now that I have changed to a BMW I think they will be even more important.............................
    Anyway, here goes.....................

    Standard M Sport MV3's and Bridgestone Run Flat's


    New wheels and tyres offered up but not fitted......



    Me likey these wheels and are a little different from the norm. I bet come spring I will be swapping the tyres over again so I can run these in the summer

          Would have thought 'Nobblies' or gravel tyres would be better for you......

            Agreed. Most people have a set of winters here mounted on a spare set of rims. But then again, we get a lot worse weather than you do and for 6 months solid!

                U were the only one moving in your village cos u had AWD

                This year you will be back to the only tramp in the village.

                        That does it for me. Anything you don't like is bound to be good then

                          Nice wheels, what winter tyres did you go for ? Been mulling this over about getting a set of winters for a month now since I picked mine up. I did pick up a space saver and jack last week for when I ditch the run flats as they suck b*lls in my opinion.

                          How you finding the biggar engine over the 320d.

                              no matter what tyres you put on a 330bm, it wont go in snow.

                              worst cars ever in snow, mine hardly moved last winter, couldnt get it off the drive.

                              nice wheels btw.
